Members of the Ventura Vineyard Christian Fellowship celebrated Easter with a sunrise service and baptisms at the Ventura Harbor, in Ventura California, on Sunday March 27, 2005. The sunrise service began at 5:30am with early illumination provided by a brilliant full moon, which was soon followed by a glorious sunrise, on a beautiful southern California morning. The service, led by Assistant Pastor Bryan White, was well attended and saw 12 baptisms, on this most perfect day. Assisting Ventura Vineyard Pastor Bob Harper with the baptisms were Bryan White (Assistant Pastor), Matt Brookes (Worship Leader/Youth Ministry) and Gary Butler.
